Default Need suggestions for repainting 94 GSR, colors, wheels, paints, etc.

Hey guys, I haven't been on for a while.

Anyways, I got a 94 GSR, milano red with the stock wheels. I've done just about everything that I've wanted to do (suspension, engine, stereo, etc, etc.) and now I need a paint job.

I'm trying to decide what to do.

Heres some options, gimme opinions, or toss out more yourself.

-Go the easy route and re-paint it Milano Red.
-Go the easy route and re-paint it Milano Red and powdercoat the wheels like gunmetal.
-Change the paint color, be a PITA (i would think anyways)

If I change the paint color, I want it all changed, which would be a PITA... I cant pop the hood of my *insert color here* and have a red engine bay... and changing all those colors would be a PITA... at least I think so.

also, whats the deal with color changing paints? if i did go all out and change the color, I thought about something like that... is that considered "cool" ? or played out or what?


I'll most likely do the body work myself, maybe attempt to paint it (my dad has the tools and he said base/clear is cake to paint), and Im thinking of powdercoating the wheels something dark.. like gunmetal. im rambling, gimme input

i dont have any recent pics, but i've got neuspeed sway-bars/strut-bars all around, bilstein shocks, pro kit springs, type R interior, red AEM intake, stock exhaust, stock lights, stock molding, etc., shaved the vtec badge - no rice anywhere.

I'd do that if I were you. I wouldn't even bother doing the chameleon paint...unless you wanna attract lots of attention. Then again, it'd look kinda dumb if you painted it chameleon and didn't have a bodykit.

Or how about painting it a different shade of red? I can't think of any off the top of my head...

I HATE that chameleon color changing paint on Integras. It just sucks. There's one in my town, and I just shudder every time I see it. It doesn't help that the guy who owns it is an ******* too...I just hate the car even more.
